Hacker @winocm has just posted a video on YouTube, demonstrating an untethered jailbreak of iOS 7.1 on his Verizon iPhone 4. While he hasn’t left many details regarding his latest jailbreak exploit, it appears that his untethered iOS 7.1 jailbreak may work on the iPhone 4S too, at least.

Following his tweet linking to the jailbreak demonstration video, Canadian jailbreak hero @iH8sn0w left another interesting tweet suggesting he might have an untethered iOS 7.1 jailbreak for A5 devices as well:
@winocm does this mean I have to bust out my camera and shoot an untethered 7.1 A5 boot? 😛

Apple rolled out the public release of iOS 7.1 earlier this month, disabling the Evasi0n iOS 7 jailbreak by patching some key kernel exploits. So, until we have a working iOS 7.1 jailbreak for all compatible iOS devices, anyone who wishes to retain their iOS 7 jailbreak should avoild updating to iOS 7.1.
Meanwhile, take a look at the video showing the untethered iOS 7.1 jailbreak in action:

Looks like anyone with 4S and up wont be getting the jailbreak.
There eventually will be JB for all devices, it’s just a matter of when.
